The first boating outing of the summer!

With John's 'non-schedule', it's hard to predict when he'll be able to have time (or take time) to do things (before the railroad calls and he goes back to work!).

He got home Tuesday afternoon, finished mowing, ate and went to bed early. He was up early Wednesday, and went to retrieve the boat from the neighbors' barn (thanks Ron & Kim for the winter storage). He replaced the fan motor, and got the hose and started the motor in the back yard (I'll put a short video at the bottom of this, I hope).

When this guy and his dog went by it looked like the dog was driving!

When he discovered he probably wasn't going to work, we packed a lunch quick and headed to Little Wall Lake! It was a beautiful day on the lake, and the motor ran a little rough, probably due to old gas (we hope)... But it was REALLY relaxing!
